Spencer W. Kimball
Each of us has more opportunities to do good and to be good than we ever use.
Spencer W. Kimball
To be mediocre, when only application and diligence would have netted superiority, is an error akin to sin.
Spencer W. Kimball
It frequently happens that offenses are committed when the offender is not aware of it. Something he has said or done is misconstrued or misunderstood. The offended one treasures in his heart the offense, adding to it such other things as might give fuel to the fire and justify his conclusions.
Spencer W. Kimball
I am comforted by the assurance that there will be beautiful music in heaven, and for that I am most grateful.
Spencer W. Kimball

Spencer W. Kimball
I am convinced that each of us, at some time in our lives, must discover the scriptures for ourselves—and not just discover them once, but rediscover them again and again.
Spencer W. Kimball
My plea therefore is this: Let us get our instruments tightly strung and our melodies sweetly sung. Let us not die with our music still in us. Let us rather use this precious mortal probation to move confidently and gloriously upward toward the eternal life which God our Father gives to those who keep his commandments.
Spencer W. Kimball
Preparedness, when properly pursued, is a way of life, not a sudden, spectacular program. We could refer to all the components of personal and family preparedness, not in relation to holocaust or disaster, but in cultivating a life-style that is on a day-to-day basis its own reward.
Spencer W. Kimball
Racial prejudice is of ignorance. There is no place for it.
Spencer W. Kimball
Marriage is perhaps the most vital of all the decisions and has the most far reaching effects.
Spencer W. Kimball
We want you to be ready with your personal storehouses filled with at least a year's supply. You don't argue why it cannot be done you just plan to organize and get it done.
Spencer W. Kimball
Time cannot be recycled. When a moment has gone, it is really gone. Wise time management is really wise management of ourselves.
Spencer W. Kimball
The burning bushes, the smoking mountains, . . . the Cumorahs, and the Kirtlands were realities but they were the exceptions. . . . Always expecting the spectacular, many will miss entirely the constant flow of revealed communication.
Spencer W. Kimball
To be a righteous woman during the winding up scenes on this earth, before the second coming of our Savior, is an especially noble calling... She has been placed here to help to enrich, to protect, and to guard the home--which is society's basic and most noble institution.
Spencer W. Kimball
Sickness sometimes is a great blessing. People become angels through sickness.
